Every bowler is getting smashed. I think its a very flat pitch and small ground.
Indeed. He did not bowl tremendously but he was good with the new ball and all of our pacers went for runs. You cannot accurately criticize him without also criticizing Ishant and B Kumar.

he was not good with new ball bhuvi was swinging the ball while vinay was gun barrel straight at 125 k bowling harmless pies .. you have to use new ball to attack and he wasted it

Keeping it tight with the new ball is not an easy or a pointless thing to do. It builds pressure which Australia successfully relieved today but would not have relieved every day. It made the job of facing B Kumar more difficult. Ideally, you will attack with the new ball but someone who keeps it tight cannot be said to be bowling badly as just "not perfectly" or "not brilliantly".

The main question is.... Is there any point in picking a very medium pacer unless he is highly skilled or gets steep bounce ? Do they ever suceed in the long run ? Vinay is a medium skilled and short , medium pacer. Also, our pace bowling is becoming too one dimensional with all 3 pacers bowling below 135 k generally. Bhuvi becomes more potent if he has a quicker pacer bowling at the other end.

not gonna happen. Bhuvi himself has said he is gonna concentrate more on line and length not on pace. He has said he doesn't have the physique or aggression like many fast bowlers. Whoever is coaching needs to be sacked, instead of asking him to work on his physique , it seems he has been advised to show little aggression and bowl line and length. Line and length is more potent when it is bowled at around 135 plus consistently, not when he is bowling 125-130s which possesses no threat to international batsmen.
